Does Kimoa still charge like a trillion dollars to ship to the US

Idk if it happened in the US but I was the one that got hit with the customs charge and I'm in Canada. It was kind of my own fault cause I've shipped a ton of stuff by Deutsche Post and I've had no issue getting it through customs but the Kimoa stuff shipped DHL and I just assumed it was going to be the same since Deutsche Post owns them.

I would talk about this more but it would just devolve into me ranting about how free trade is a scam and one of the many tools used to oppress the proletariat.

Probate me for one month if Stroll has more WDC points than McLaren at the end of the season. :toxx:

Probate me for a month if Alonso has fewer WDC points than both Williams drivers combined at the end of the season.

It's interesting that, other than a little light bits falling off, no-one is actually having any trouble during this testing.

Is it because of the cold or are cars just even more reliable this year?

Tyres have no grip on the cold tack so it’s not sandbagging, they really can’t go fast enough to set decent times. Normally what they would do is push very hard on certain corners or straights and then back off hard so the sector times show as slow. Data they are gathering will be near enough useless, but at least it will be useless for everyone.

Stoffel's getting a good run in today. Plenty of time at the top of the timesheet, albeit with hypersofts on. If McLaren needed to convince a potential sponsor or two they're probably doing enough. If they end up in Melbourne with no new stickers on the car lol just lol.

McLaren seems to like running very soft compounds (they did this in the past too) for whatever reason.

If the softer compounds have more pliable sidewalls it could be their way of testing tire deformation in the cold. Impossible to know without being there but it's not a good sign when you're the odd one out.
